Dierks Bentley Adds Second Leg to Riser Tour

Dierks Bentley has added a run of additional dates to his Riser Tour.

Bentley released his current album, 'Riser,' in February. He kicked off the first leg of the support tour in May, with special guests Chris Young, Chase Rice and Jon Pardi.

The second leg is slated to launch in Stockton, Calif. on Oct. 2 and run through the end of 2014, with special guests Randy Houser and Eric Paslay on the U.S. shows and rising Canadian star Tim Hicks on the bill for the shows in Canada.

“It’s going to be tough to top this summer, but every night I get more excited and don't want this run to end. I'm just living in the moment as much as I can and taking it all in … it really has been the best summer of my life," says Bentley. “I'm looking forward to having Randy, Eric and Tim out on the road for the next leg … all three of them are crazy talented."

The Riser Tour has attracted capacity crowds at amphitheaters all over North America and earned glowing reviews.

Tickets are now available for the first announced dates of the second leg at Bentley's website. More details will be released in the coming weeks.
